As I said downstairs I take this as a positive development. It shows that Santorum is going to make no pretense of being a moderate candidate but rather is going full-metal wingnut. If he wins the nomination in 2016 it will be as the rabidly far-right “true conservative” candidate the party fundamentalists have been dreaming of for the last decade.

When he is rejected at the polls who will the Republicans/Tea Party blame then?
